US asks India to stop blaming Pakistan
2006-10-04 12:45:03
Double standard? When some one attack on US you start full fledges War and when some one attack India you ask India to sit and talk to resolve the issue. Need to change this attitude if you people really want to win War on Terror. You can?t have one policy for yourself and one policy for the other country for the same problem.   ISLAMABAD, Oct 3: The United States on Tuesday advised India not to blame Pakistan for the Mubmai blasts without certain proof and suggested that New Delhi should resolve the issue through a ?direct contact? with Islamabad. ?India should communicate with Pakistan by having direct contact instead of talking about the Mumbai train blasts in the public,? US Ambassador Ryan C. Crocker told a news conference. He said the United States wanted Indian and Pakistani governments to discuss all the issues between them, including the Kashmir dispute, to normalise their relations. ?We hope that both the countries would keep all their channels open to rectify the...

I guess our honorable PM is asking too much from Pakistan . How come he or any body in India can expect them (Pakistan) to be sincere about tackling terrorism, when they are main culprit in 99% bombing in India. Give me one example where Pakistan have been sincere in tackling the terrorist? How we can trust Mr.Musharraf when he is clearly saying that ?the Kargil operations were a landmark in the history of the Pakistani army.?

Spanish are lucky:) Really I dont understand why she has to change her clothes in public? Diaz’s breathless ‘boob show’! Cameron Diaz gave holidaymakers on the Spanish island of Majorca “a vacation that was worth every penny spent,” when she stripped off for a fashion shoot on the beach.

Traditional marriage vows ?could be used to justify wife bea
2006-10-04 06:42:02
As far as I know and I am sure any other normal human being also knows that beating a women can not be justified in any religion or in any court. Who ever beats women whether she is Wife , Sister, Mother or Aunt they are evil. Guys who thinks religions allows them to beat women are dumb, because even if we think in normal way we know that from our heart that beating women can not be justified in any circumstances. The traditional marriage vows in which the bride promises to “obey” her husband could be used by men to justify domestic violence, a Church of England report said yesterday. The report, backed by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, accused the Church of failing at “many points” to prevent abuse. It said that theological ideas such as male “headship” had been enshrined in the marriage service and could be misinterpreted as supporting the idea that the wife should submit to the husband. technorati tags: Christianity, Church, ...

Terror trainer Cheema lives in Pak fortress

Good to see how soon Pakistan decline this claim….. MUMBAI: One of the strongest links of the 7/11 blasts to Pakistan is Azam Cheema, who is in charge of training recruits for the Pakistan-based terrorist outfit, Lashkar-e-Taiba, say the Mumbai police and Indian intelligence agencies which took nearly three months to piece together the jigsaw. Almost everyone arrested for the blasts has been trained by him, say the police. “Cheema, who is in his early fifties, lives in a palatial house in Bahawalpur, Pakistan, which is guarded like a fortress. He moves around with dozens of heavily armed bodyguards and escort cars. Every now and then, he makes trips to Islamabad to meet VIPs,” Mumbai police commissioner A N Roy said on Sunday. It was in the LeT?s training camp at Bahawalpur that Faisal Shaikh (30), the LeT?s Western Indian commander, was trained. “Faisal was Cheema?s favourite student and wanted to stay back in Pakistan.

This is interesting, then who pose the threat to Euro pe an values? because it is for sure that we are loosing core basic European values…… New York, October 1: The 15 million Muslim s residing in Europe today do not pose a threat to European values or politics given the extent of their myriad divisions and internal fragmentation, a new study has said.  This conclusion contradicts analysts and policymakers who after 9/11 fear the impact of Muslims on European politics and policy based on the assumption that a Muslim bloc will soon emerge to dominate the foreign and domestic policies of European states if nothing is done to prevent it.

When Hindus wear the burkha

Are we all gone crazy? India a Secular country or Islamic Country? Malti Laad is looking forward to going shopping with her friends next week. It’s Ramzan after all, and, she points out, “Hamari Diwali bhi to hai.” As the group of veiled women samples the goodies on Mohammed Ali Road, they will help Malti buy what’s on top of her Diwali shopping list: a black burkha. The one she wears now belongs to the school where she teaches. As Malti talks to me inside the school’s air-conditioned audio-visual room, a middle-aged, bearded male enters announcing his presence with a loud “excuse me”. Without a pause in the conversation, Malti pulls down her double-layered naqaab (face veil). As I try to adjust to the pair of kohl-lined eyes that this jovial 23-year-old has suddenly transformed into, the man walks towards us with glasses of water, his head turned firmly away from us.  The Al-Jamiatul-Fikriya Islamic English School in central Mumbai, which ...
